2013 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · FX13 VLP

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean recent history. The most recent test on 28 January 2026 at 118,442 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a successful inspection in January 2025 at 114,974 miles, suggesting that the mechanical condition has remained consistent and well-maintained over the last two years. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,111 miles per year. The record shows steady usage without significant periods of inactivity or sudden spikes in mileage. Between the January 2025 test and the January 2026 test, the car covered 3,468 miles, indicating regular, moderate use. The data remains continuous and reliable, providing a clear picture of the vehicle's lifecycle. A pattern of consumable wear is evident in the historical data. The tester flagged thin brake pads in 2016, 2023, and a failure in January 2024 due to both nearside and offside front pads being below the 1.5 mm threshold. The January 2024 failure also noted a non-excessive front oil leak. While the 2024 and 2025 tests show these issues were resolved, the recurrence of brake wear suggests the owner manages maintenance on a reactive basis rather than a preventative one. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system, specifically checking for even pad wear and any signs of new fluid leaks around the engine or oil pan. Although the recent tests show no defects, the previous report of an oil leak warrants a close look at the sump and seals. Checking the condition of the headlamp alignment and electrical bulbs is also advisable, given the failure noted in October 2020.
